Fasteners and tools: The screws can only be loaded with the tensile and transverse forces listed in the fastener approval of IFBS Düsseldorf if the tightening torques specified in this approval are observed. A bolt setting device is required for connecting the trapezoidal steel profile panels by means of setting bolts to steel girders with a flange thickness of more than 6 mm and on flat steel embedded in the concrete; modern devices have a cartridge magazine.  Read more

Laminated protective foils should be removed immediately after installation but not later than 4 weeks after delivery. Installation of FischerTHERM roof elements Place packages on the roof purlins using a crane. Distribute the pallets so that the substructure is evenly loaded, ideally near trusses or girders. On sloped roofs, packages must be protected from slipping off the substructure....  Read more

Checks prior to laying Before commencing installation work, check whether the construction site is in the contractually agreed condition. This includes A paved driveway to the construction site that can be accessed by articulated trucks with a max. laden weight of 40 tons and by mobile cranes. Suitable working areas with a load-bearing surface, e.g. for ....  Read more

Laying plans/detailed drawings must be available on site for checking. The following details should be shown: Intended profiled panels with profile description; Element thickness and length; Structural systems for building elements Installation direction; Intended fasteners with type designation, arrangement and spacing, special installation instructions depending on the type of connection (eg drill hole diameter and tightening torque)......  Read more

If cutting is required, e.g., for roof apertures, notches and adjustments at the roof edge, non-sparking tools should be used. For cutting FischerTHERM®, compass saws with a high depth of cut and matching saw blades with a pitch of approx. 1mm or a hand-held circular saw should be used. To cut profiled sheets and edge profiles, electrical plate shears or nibblers, which give a neat cut even when cutting in a crosswise direction, should be used ....  Read more

Profile fillers from polyethylene or EPDM should be secured so that they will not fall off or move. Sealing of roof and wall systems shall be performed using sealing strip, sealant or PUR in situ foam on longitudinal and cross joints as well as on connections. Do not use an acid hardening sealant....

Only fasteners that have been officially approved for the particular application must be used. To connect panels using self-tapping screws on a steel supporting structure, on flat steel in concrete girders or on special anchor rails, a drilling machine with drills having a diameter of 5.3mm, 5.5mm or ....  Read more

Before the actual installation, the division of the building elements on the roof or ceiling or wall surfaces according to the installation plan must be marked on the substructure by marking the construction widths. The cladding elements must be handled very carefully, especially the coated surfaces; it is recommended to work with clean working gloves. It should always be remembered that ....  Read more

Abladen und Lagern Die Pakete müssen an der Baustelle mit geeigneten Hebezeugen abgeladen werden. Bei kurzen Elementen ist dies auch durch Gabelstapler möglich, besser aber ist die Verwendung von Kranen. Falls keine speziellen “Traversen” mit gummierten Hebebändern zur Verfügung stehen, sollten beim Abladen mit normalen Anschlagseilen Kantenschutzwinkel an der Oberseite der Pakete angelegt oder Spreizhölzer ….  Read more
